Laravel Shortcuts for Software Agencies

This is where your description should go. Limit it to a paragraph or two. Consider adding a small example.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require bisual/laravel-shortcuts

You can publish and run the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-shortcuts-migrations"
php artisan migrate

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-shortcuts-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
];

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-shortcuts-views"

Custom query params usage

You can build different formats of query params to handle sort, select and with in different depths of your query.

-- WITH --

To indicate depth within your query param 'with' you should use this format.

?with=relation..relation2..relation3

The '..' character indicates one level deeper.

-- ORDER BY --

You can simply indicate the field to order by entering it in your query as you have done all your life.

?order_by=created_at

But you can also choose which fields of your relations to order and in which depth to do it, as well as indicate 'order_by_direction' in the same string.

?order_by=relation..relation2..relation3.created_at:desc

If you do not indicate your 'order_by_direction' with ':' next to the field to sort by, it will sort in 'asc' direction by default.

-- SELECT --

You can indicate a single field of your main table to get only that information (you don't need to add the id).

?select=name

And once again, you can choose what information about your relationship you receive at the same time. Different fields of the same relationship level will be separated by '|'.

?select=relation..relation2..relation3.name|description

⚙️ Generalities

In all cases, to separate different relationships, regardless of the depth level, they must be separated by a ','.

?with=users,relation..relation2
?order_by=users.name,relation..relation2.created_at:desc
?select=users.name,relation..relation2.title|description|created_at

NOTE: The query param 'order_by_direction' is not necessary when using laravel-shortcuts since it is applied directly in 'order_by', using it could cause errors.
